Exhaust made for clearance
The exhaust from in front of the cat and back has been ripped off again. The big catalytic converter just hangs too low. Where can I get a smaller one to put on it? And maybe get the exhaust tucked up above the uni-frame. Anyone done something similar? The muffler isnt too bad. Its a short height flowmaster. But the cat hangs ridiculously low. I'm going to go check the sizes of universal cats sizes on ebay now.

Got myself a new cat and muffler to put on. Thought I would update this to help out anyone searching around in the future. I bought a magnaflow converter and a cheap cherry bomb turbo muffler. I got TONS more clearance now. The converter and muffler now only hangs an inch or so below the frame.

Yeah the only exhaust problem i've ever had was i put a 45 degree bend in it right after the CB Glasspack hung about even with the center of the axle hit that a couple of times just had to trim it though.

my flowmaster 40 hangs about 2 inches under the frame because i didn't have enough space to tuck it in there without hitting the driveshaft, so i just drive it accordingly.

The stocker hung rediculously low. I'm talking like four inches. It was hard not to catch it on everything. And when you have something with only a moderate lift kit and cut fenders to clear 31s so that the COG stays low the belly isnt as high as some rigs. It will help even more when I throw another 2" of lift at it and put 33s on.
